Definition of Web Hosting Reseller

The World Wide Web has become a vital staple in our daily life. Everybody desires to launch their own site, whether for entertainment, for socialisation or commercial ends. The hosting business niche is blossoming. Why don't you take a part of the pie yourself?

What can you resell?

Most vendors distribute Linux-driven web hosting solutions. Linux is a multitasking platform, which is very apposite for both dedicated hosting and shared hosting servers. The typical web hosting reseller scheme that providers offer is the cPanel one, since the cPanel CP graphical user interface allows 3 levels of access - root (reserved for the web hosting supplier itself), reseller (that is where you enter) and user (for your customers). Even though some do allow overselling, in the majority of the cases you are restricted by the server hard drive storage space and monthly traffic limitations of your web hosting reseller package. It is like a sphere, which you stuff with smaller spheres - when you have stuffed it all up, you cannot add more.

Resell VPS packages or dedicated server hosting plans

The majority of the hosts offering VPS packages and dedicated package do not really object if you utilize the Virtual Private Server or the dedicated web server to resell website hosting accounts. If you choose to sell website hosting accounts using a dedicated server, you will have total authority over the entire machine, the opportunity to perform any config modifications you see fit and the opportunity to keep an eye on all the web hosting account owners hosted on it. The VPSs offer comparable specs, but in most cases you cannot implement any kernel adjustments or adjustments, which necessitate kernel module rearrangement. The best web hosting CP interface that permits you to resell web hosting accounts availing of your dedicated server or private virtual server is, again, cPanel, even though you can also utilize DirectAdmin, depending on which hosting CP user interface meets your expectations better.

What do you need to become a reseller?

In order to be a hosting reseller and launch your reseller hosting business, you demand a web site, a billing system, a merchant account with a payment processor such as PayPal, WorldPay, MoneyBookers, 2CheckOut, etc., and a Secure Sockets Layer certificate to guarantee that your customers' details are secure when they make payments using your website when ordering a hosting product. Famous invoicing systems that you can utilize are WHMCS, AWBS and ClientExec. The guys at ResellersPanel, however, offer you a charge-free web hosting reseller account with all that included in it - a ready-for-use website, a billing system and even support for your customers. Their web hosting reseller program is unique on the market, as they bill and support your customers on your behalf, and permit you to resell our hosting solutions without the need to buy anything upfront yourself. Additionally, they allow you to resell all their hosting products - shared website hosting solutions, virtual hosting servers, semi-dedicated and dedicated web hosting solutions. You can sell all of these to your clients using a turn-key site template. The profit you earn is basically the difference between their wholesale price and the price you assign yourself, so all you need to do is be a good marketing strategist and acquire customers. If that is a bit too innovative for you, they still offer shared cPanel web hosting reseller packages, as most reseller hosting providers do, and you can always obtain a private virtual hosting server or a dedicated server and divide it into website hosting accounts, which you can sell yourself. The gifts included in their cPanel web hosting reseller plans will make your reseller life easier too - they offer ClientExec in order to bill and support your customers, a compilation of web site skins and even a free eNom reseller account. We have data center facilities in four countries - Australia, the States and the United Kingdom. It is a unique opportunity for you to spread your hosting business on three continents.
